Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1957, this property is well-maintained and clean, as noted in the description. However, the interior, particularly the kitchen, is significantly outdated with original-style wooden cabinets, laminate countertops, a very dated tiled backsplash, and basic white appliances. While the flooring appears to be updated laminate, and some windows may be newer, many features like the wood paneling and some light fixtures are clearly from an older era. The home is functional but requires substantial aesthetic updates to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of being aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 452588, living area = 1120.
Development & Subdivision Potential: The property offers significant development potential, allowing for the creation of up to 9 additional lots with the existing home potentially serving as an ADU, maximizing future value.
Expansive & Usable Land: Features 10.39 flat and usable acres, with the option to acquire adjoining parcels for a total of 21.79 acres, providing vast space for agricultural, equestrian, or development projects.
Prime San Marcos Location: Situated in a highly-regarded city, recognized for excellent schools, safety, and family-friendliness, enhancing desirability and long-term property value.
Income-Generating Asset: Currently an active, well-maintained farm with a tenant open to continuing the lease, offering immediate rental income and operational stability.
Essential Infrastructure & Access: Benefits from a 2" water meter (VID) and county-maintained paved road access, crucial for agricultural operations and future development.

Cons

Permit & Square Footage Discrepancies: The home has 'permits unknown' and an 'undetermined size' due to additions (e.g., garage conversion), posing potential legal and financial risks that require buyer investigation.
Age of Home & Potential for Updates: Built in 1957, the home is older and, despite being clean, may require significant updates to systems or aesthetics to meet modern standards, despite some original features.
Extensive Buyer Due Diligence Required: The complex nature of potential boundary adjustments, lot spin-offs, and permit verification necessitates considerable buyer effort and expense for thorough due diligence.
